   Most GC'd languages have as a goal the desire to protect programmers   
   from themselves.  The average programmer today is only a little better   
   than poor.  Language features like GC and monitor-based mutual   
   exclusion (Java's synchronized objects) are no longer conveniences for   
   good programmers but necessities without which the average programmers   
   cannot work effectively.
